Episode 89 opens with the Hale End Academy kids and a little praise for how much they're playing and how much we appreciate seeing them play. It's great to watch them get the opportunities, which important to keeping them while they progress to the first team.
3-0. Seemingly not much to say, but we cover it whistle to whistle. Except we didn't mention the Ben White incident. Somehow we forgot? I guess when it's not PGMOL and they get it right it IS easier to pass over. UCL refs get calls right way more often than EPL refs... We think, in case you haven't heard us before, that PGMOL might have an inherent anti-Arsenal bias that accounts for how often they f*** up our games with bad decisions. Aaaaanyway... I digress.
Granit and Sunderland host us on the weekend and we're looking at who's going to take the 3 points out of the Stadium of Light.
Fun in Portland and a hot take on big hair round out the episode.
Technically, that thing I needed Matt to remind me about regarding the number 2 (not six/seven) is the end, so be sure to stick around for that.

Message us with your Gooner Origin Story, why are you a fan of The Arsenal. We'd love to tell your story... if Eric can find it. (?)
Everyone you meet is fighting a battle you know nothing about. Be kind. Always.
